:wtf:

Correct me if im wrong but isnt Jaz considered the female Lux? isnt that the equivalent of lets say JC turning down Lux?

lol Jaz ain't nothing like Lux imo. If anything she's what JC would be if he had good management, and only took one battle a year... Remember JC arguably won like his first 10 rounds on the URL platform. Jaz was propped up by Norbes from the beginning. She does a great job of keeping her face out there, but ask yourself, where's the demand for a Jaz battle? You think she's turning down big offers out here? You think her name sells a lot of tickets? I think Official kinda killed her mystique. Jaz was able to hold her status over other female rappers heads for a long time. Now that she can't do that anymore, the interest in battling her has waned somewhat.

After what official did to her? :mjlol: hell nah

Im really not in the female battle rap scene but I always thought Jaz was held in high regard and it took a bump after the Official battle. There were always female battlers calling her out, she getting the URL/Norbes push and only battling once or twice per year kinda made it seem like that for me. But like i said im not in touch with the female battle rap scene :manny:

I meant the female Lux status wise btw not in terms of skills

Back when Trez just came out I said he was a fusion of Hollow and Hitman.

Fast Forward, Hitman is on record sayin he wants him as the Flagship artist for his league.

Jaz doesn't battle enough to not have any opponents.

Jaz has tori, couture, bonnie, c3, ehart, etc.

Jaz is a battle rap fan who battles once a year.

Female Lux :mjlol:

Before NOME 5 she was held in the highest regard of any female battle rapper that I'm aware of.

She didn't battle often, had a 3-0 casket on her record, and was one of the only female rappers getting the chosen one treatment from URL.

To the battle rap fan that only casual follows the female scene (ie. me) she was considered to be the best. Same way casual fans looked at Lux.

I don't think the female Lux comparisons were far off, in terms of her ranking relative to her peers. Official pushing her sh1t back changed all that, of course.

Nothing you're saying is wrong really. The female battlers were always coming at her because there wasn't as much opportunity for them as a whole back then. Like you said, her being undefeated and getting that URL push made them come at her. But unlike Lux, it's her status that they desired, it wasn't really her talents that generated all the excitement.

Lux is Lux though. He got 3-0'd by Mook and URL still had to sit at the table and negotiate with him for his return vs Clips. His name carries a lot of weight no matter what. I don't think Jaz's name carries the weight, it was her status. To me it's akin to how Math was treated before and after the Calicoe battle. The URL staff had propped him up to be the face of the league.

I think E Hart, Bonnie & Myverse are more likely candidates than those three.

The three you named are fan favorites, but what have they done on a URL stage? It could be disaster putting them up there.

Myverse is no way in any contention to battle Jaz. wtf.

Hart is the top pick and Jaz wants that battle but debo will do whatever he can to make that happen on QOTR. Jaz next URL battle is either Bonnie or Tori if it's not a dude(Aye Verb). I'll bet money on that.


After what official did to her? :mjlol: hell nah

I don't think Jaz was ever considered to be the female "Lux" but she's still the number 1 female in battle rap. Yea Official killed her but then Official died her very next battle vs hustle. shyt reset itself and Jaz is back on top. Not to mention as time passed after the official battle more and more fans realized how dope Jaz really was in that battle.

I agree Hart would win but Jaz not getting bodied. Especially since this is a battle Jaz wants. The last battle Jaz was vocal about WANTING was 40 and we seen how that turned out. To this day that's still the best battle rap performance from a female

"Hit that bytch with a bottle of vodka just to show 40 proof"
:damn:

What are you basing this off of? Myverse makes more sense than Tori. Norbes likes Myverse, and she already has a Smack stage battle under her belt. Plus Myverse has a buzz outside of QOTR and Smack. 100k on Don't Flop, 80k on "Voicebox Battles", and she was in the same damn Sway cipher that Jaz was in.

lol matter fact, go in the comments, and see whose name pops up more, Jaz or Myverse lol
